Parallels

Salon 21 teams up with Cincinnati Soundbox to present four world premieres for piano quintet written by composers from the United States and Poland: Zaneta Rydzewska, Aleksandra Chmielewska, Julia Seeholzer, and Laura Harrison. Representing fresh new voices in composition today, each composer will interpret the piano quintet through their own lens, while pushing the boundaries of the art form. This program will be presented separately in both Cincinnati and Warsaw, Poland over the course of the 2018/2019 season. The US premiere will feature 4-Way Quartet, Cincinnati's String Quartet and Salon 21 Artistic Director, pianist Jill Jantzen. This project is supported by the generosity of community contributions to the ArtsWave Campaign.
